John,

  Yes, that would work as well, as would storing a bookmark.  Both would be
faster then the function code posted.  The only drawback is that a requery
invalidates positions and bookmarks, but that is not a major obstacle as
long as your aware of it.  The sample MDB I worked up has an example using
bookmarks.

 You might want to take a look at the sample, as I use a slightly different
technique (wish I could claim that I thought of it) to control row colors.
The technique (use of a bound OLE control) not only allows for displaying of
different colors, but graphics as well.  Quite flexible.

I went in to look at the demo.  It uses an entire function to get the
current line number.  In my framework I use
.RecordsetClone.AbsolutePosition.  Can anyone comment on whether this
replaces the function?

Hello All,

In A97 on a continuous form...I want to highlight or identify the row that
has focus.  Change the color of something...anything...but only on that
record?  Is this possible?  Everything I tried changed the color of every
instance of that control...not just the one on the current record?

Any Ideas?

Thanks,

Mark
